Pomade ‘58 At the Pla-Mor Roller Rink smooth skinned boys with voices just moved into new octaves stoke the wail of the 45’s swimming backwards in sensuous dips and deep cool My better judgment pulled between the eyes of god and the new scent of man surrenders to a nervous walk home At the front steps his anticipation sweeps a hand across pomaded hair but queen mother draws up the moat before conked kings can cross over We are not yet afro’d there are dread locks in the womb jerri curl is written into a preface and hieroglyphs will be carved into tender bark Until then brown fingers dip and glide into the jar that holds back the wind. S. Pearl Sharp c. 2003 S. Pearl Sharp/ Poets Pay Rent, Too.
